It’s rare that the Mrs finds time in her day to respond for recipe requests but here you go-
She used this recipe (and modified it just a bit) I like my sauce thick and full of flavor and this was the bomb!
She writes-
I just realized I never sent the recipe…
here is the link. I didn’t use the lobster broth – I basically made the sauce and then added cooked lobster meet at the end.
Hope this helps!

Oh, I should also add that she only uses canned San Marzano tomatoes for her zugu. They cost a little more but if you want the best, that’s what you buy.


Sounds super delicious. I’ll try Jill’s method of adding the lobster meat at the end as my husband is allergic to lobster (unfortunately so!!). For him, I’ll separate out a batch and add scallops or some type of white fish.
